  • Title: Pigmented purpuric eruption associated with injection medroxyprogesterone acetate.
    Author: Tsao H, Lerner LH.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 2000 Aug; 43(2 Pt 1):308-10. PubMed ID: 10906656.
    Abstract:
    Pigmented purpuric eruptions are characterized clinically by purpura, most commonly petechial, and brownish pigmentation. Although there are several idiopathic variants, several drugs have been associated with these eruptions. We present a patient who experienced pigmented purpura on her lower extremities several months after initiating medroxyprogesterone acetate injection. The eruption cleared several weeks after discontinuation of the medication.
